However, at a lower cost, the simultaneous energy harvesting by multiple PZTs under the same vibration source can more effectively increase the electrical energy supplied to the load. Hence, a self-powered extensible serial synchronized switch harvesting on inductor interface circuit based on RC differential circuit (SPEDS-SSHI) for piezoelectric energy harvesting is proposed in this article. It is implemented by reducing the number of switches required for the single piezoelectric unit and improving the reuse of components. The theoretical simulation demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed circuit. The results show that the SPEDS-SSHI circuit can simultaneously harvest energy from multiple PZTs with any phase difference. The maximum harvested power of the proposed circuit for single PZT is 4.6 times that of the SEH circuit.","PeriodicalId":303656,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 21st Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference (MELECON)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123681451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An LCL filter is designed between the inverter and the grid to minimize the current distortion injected into the grid. The aim is to improve the performance of the proposed system by minimizing the THD and switching frequency which leads to reduce losses and optimize the quality of the power injected. The MATLAB/Simulink environment is used to simulate and verify the performance of the system using the proposed control technique. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed FCS-MPC strategy can effectively improve the quality of the grid connection and also reduce switching losses.

The number of the medical staff at hospitals was very limited. Thus, it was so risky for medical staff to have direct contact with that enormous number of Covid-19 patients, especially with those who were suffering from severe Covid-19 symptoms and should be isolated in quarantine isolation rooms. The world doesn’t know to which extent the next pandemic could be dangerous. Therefore, we proposed an EHealth system that will be suitable to address this issue by minimizing any direct interactions between medical staff and patients, who are suffering from either Covid-19 or any similar potentially life-threatening infections. The proposed solution is consisting of two subsystems. The first subsystem is related to the incessant aggregation process of all the vital sensory data needed to fully track the health status of each patient in isolation rooms using the proposed Patient Monitoring Unit (PMU). The second stage is responsible for gathering all these health status information using the Hospital Central Monitoring Server Unit (HCMSU) within a hospital, which then can be displayed for the medical staff to fully track all the patients’ data readings over a secured ethernet connection. Moreover, the HCMSU is responsible for filtering the received patients’ status data and transmitting only the necessary information to server Covid-19 databases at the Ministry of Health (MoH). The prototype of both the PMU and the HCMSU has been tested and verified.","PeriodicalId":303656,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 21st Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference (MELECON)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124968916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To overcome this issue, a low-cost beam-switching antenna array for Ultra High Frequency (UHF) RFID was proposed in this letter, which can significantly lower the number of blind spots and improve the detection rate. Firstly, a low-cost circularly polarized (CP) antenna element is designed with compact size, wide impedance and axial ratio (AR) bandwidths. Then, an array makes use of orientation diversity and spatial diversity is designed with five switchable radiation beams. A simple, low-lost but effective feeding network is designed to avoid usage of phase shifters or power dividers, making the design economically efficient. Finally, numerical optimizations and experimental demonstrations are performed to investigate the performances of the proposed antenna array and good agreements are obtained. The measured results demonstrate that the presented beam-switching antenna array is very suitable for RFID applications.","PeriodicalId":303656,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 21st Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference (MELECON)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131791532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, a pitch angle controller based on fuzzy logic is introduced using the PMSG power as a control variable and wind speed as a sensitivity parameter to improve the control performance of the controller. The fuzzy logic controller is designed and its effectiveness is compared to the PI controller and fixed pitch angle control mechanisms.

One interesting, addressed by this work, is related to the welfare of the laboratory animals that could be preserved by acquiring and classifying some image data to monitor object’s presence in their cages. For example mice and rats activities such as drinking and eating can be indicators of their state of health. In that context, $mu$BottleNet has been developed to classify the presence, or the absence of the water bottle, while $mu$FoodNet to classify the level of the food into the feeder. Those neural networks (NNs) achieved 99.8% accuracy. At our best knowledge, no datasets were available to support this study and therefore we built three image datasets to train the neural networks on both Bottle and Food objects. From image capture to the inferences execution, the tasks have been carried out by STM32L4 (ultra-low-power that consumes 120 $mu$A/MHz) and STM32H7 micro controller units (MCUs). Both NNs have been designed to fit into constrained MCU resources. Special attention has been given to the on-chip memory occupation to ensure the RAM footprint was 39.44 KBytes. To evaluate and test on the field the performances of these models (and against to the MobileNetV2 one), a graphical user interface (GUI), has been developed, capable of rendering, the validation and test results of inference runs on the MCUs. K-fold cross validation has been run and the resulting performances of the two NNs were compared to the MobileNetV2 confirming that the $mu$BottleNet and the $mu$FoodNet reached and exceeded the accuracy achieved by a more complex NN architecture.","PeriodicalId":303656,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 21st Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference (MELECON)","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133787911","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
